I just purchased this pack of 4 CFL bulbs for $20! I was looking into LEDs, but I needed multiple bulbs and LEDs are a bit more expensive. They can be used in regular lamps and has pretty good reviews on amazon!
You can always supplement with full spectrum white grow CFL lightbulbs, I have a couple and plants love them especially my props and seedlings. I got them on amazon
Hmm, I don't think that's the kind of bulb you want.
CFL stands for compact fluorescent light, which basically means it's those long fluorescent tubes (office or shop lights) made into a smaller bulb.
Something like this might work better: http://amzn.com/B00AKKUZ7I
I'm no expert though!
The link address of my item of choice: cfl's for my new grow
The reasoning behind my want for these bulbs are: 1.) im expiermenting with indoor growing of plants. 2.) I lost my job and cannot purchase these on my own 3.) They are energy efficient, which make you a contributor to a greener earth 4.) They are just nice lol 5.) Simply because I'd really like to have them
My version of a cfl, lmao... pretty darn close hahaha, even added the different spectrums of light
I have a larger echeveria that is much happier under the full spectrum light. I can see new growth, and for now it is as healthy as it was in full sun. Only time will tell, but so far these seem to be the best indoor solution!

I bought this place from Lowe's and it looked fantastic. The leaves were not so droopy and there were a lot more. The other day it wasn't looking so good, yellow/dead leaves. So I thought I'd go ahead and repot it. I've repotted it and gave it a few sprits of water and it still hasn't gotten any better after a few days. It's actually looking worse than when I repotted.
What am I doing wrong? How can I save this poor plant? I'm afraid of watering it too much. I have it between two windows where some sunlight comes through some kind of blackout curtains (they're not fully blackout curtains, just block a lot of sunlight.
Should I water it and put it under this light for a day? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AKKUZ7I?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf
First of all, any light will sort of work.
But you get a significant effect only if the bulb produces a wide spectrum of light, something that approximates sunlight. Look for "full-spectrum" or "6400K" bulbs; these are bulbs that produce a very wide spectrum of light. These 13W CFL bulbs ($23 for 4-pack, or $5.75 per bulb). CFL (compact fluorescent) bulbs last for years, but you can also look for LED, which should last even longer. Both CFL and LED have the benefit that they don't hot, so that you can put them close to plants without burning them.
The next level up is a dedicated LED grow light, which concentrates the light in the range that plants like for photosynthesis, including infrared. Galaxyhydro ($77) is a well-respected manufacturer. These light boxes are generally designed to hang from the ceiling; they typically have heat vents that need to stay uncovered.
